A off-the-cuff show focused on domestic and foreign affairs with your host, president of WIIS West, Lila Green. Music by The Hominoids. Cover by C. Goodwin.
WIIS West without question condemns the action of Vladimir Putin, the Russian State Duma, and any of the benefactors of his unprovoked invasion of Ukraine. This episode was recorded one week ago and addresses the grandiose nature of Putin's type of leadership and how, reflexively, it creates an environment of drama that bleeds into being interpreted as entertainment. Dr. Myrton Running Wolf is our guest in this unique conversation.
Borderline/Feels like I'm going to loose my mind! No, we're not quoting 1980s Madonna for fun: we are expressing our frustration at the mottled mess that is the news coming daily from the Russian/Ukrainian conflict. Entering in a Show of Force today is Summer Gary, scholar of all things Russian. Please come with us as we pour this situation on the floor and try to pick out the individual molecules.
Check it to wreak it; let's begin! Lisa Berkley is back, and she's a Dr. now. Not only that, she's a president again! Lisa and Lila will be co-Presidenting WIIS West and are giving you a lengthy teaser trailer of what that means for the organization and what's to come, not the least of which is a partnership with Crown College at UC-Santa Cruz. So brew your favorite warm beverage and hang with us for a few.
Can you believe we're finally back?! Happy MLK Day! This shorter episode is just with our President Lila Green, bringing you briefly into what to expect in 2022, while also briefly discussing why were were largely MIA during 2021. Please join us and expect us around every 2 weeks going forward.

"Shall.We.Play.A.Game?" Wargames is not just a rad movie from the 1980's anymore! It is a profession that is alive and well and, YES - there are women that do it. Caitlin Jamison is a Wargame Designer at the National Defense University in Virginia, and she joins us today to talk about the value of wargames, where they stand today, and why it's fundamental that we get more women into this niche line of work.
